The current level of the API is mismatched with the PSM SDMA.

The ib_umem api:
- maps an SG list which isn't required by PSM since DMA mapping is done by the 
low level SDMA
- the mapping is bi-directional vs. from device
- The pd's context is not there

Certainly we would consider a core change that provides just the page locking 
and we could fake a context.
